Testimonials
“Before I met Ms. Paulina they had to keep me in puppy jail”
-BOGEY
“I’m so stinkin’ cute my mom and dad let me get away with ANYTHING. Now I’m proud to be a Mannered Mutt“
-RAMBO
“The Mannered Mutt has done an amazing job with my dog, Harvey. Harvey came in with basic obedience, but had so much energy, he was unwilling to listen. Harvey developed poor behaviors when interacting with other dogs, so I avoided taking him to places where other dogs would be. Paulina and staff not only got Harvey to listen much better, but I no longer have to worry about potential dog fights. Harvey now heels off leash and comes when called. He is also much calmer at home. I would recommend The Mannered Mutt to anyone. I would like to point out that even if your dog is no longer at the facility, Paulina will continue to treat you like a lifetime customer. You are not just getting training, but lifetime guidance. Thank you, Mannered Mutt.“
